...and Dalton wasn't even all that bad on deep throws in 2014. His INT rate was the highest in his career (on throws of 21+), but he was still making plays.
Overall, he went 14 of 43 (32.6%) for 583 yards, 6 TDs and 4 INTs on throws of 21+ that year. Brady, Ben and Dalton all had several worse years when I ran the numbers over.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
